I have been saying for a while that the fans care more than the players; this is even more true with transfer portal and NIL. It is all about me, me, me.
I can imagine some transfers at UF this season looking up at the stands doing the Gator chomp and saying, "Wow, that is cool, what exactly are they doing?" Same in Tallahassee.

GusBus will end Sunbelt Billy. No way he survives a UCF loss. November 30th will be the saddest sunshine showdown in awhile.

I've been to Neyland enough to say with certainty that BAMA fans were all alone in the 4th quarter as the vile navy was launching for calmer waters.

I feel bad for Napier. Knowing the fanbase and donors have given up on you and were not even half way through the season.

Napier was doomed from the start. When you have a fanbase too poor and apathetic to contribute to NIL you’re gonna be bad at football in the current year
Sad thing to see for a once proud program

What do they mean by "out"?
Like, are they faking injuries?
Entering the Portal?
Or basically just quitting and not showing up?

SBB won't be there to witness it, that's for sure. Dude isn't likely to survive to be on the sidelines for WLOCP.

Saying the UF fanbase is poor is a stupid comment, they have been apathetic and were slow to realize that you have to pay money in today's world to get top players. The older Gator boosters until recently still believed that players grew up Gator fans and just wanted to come play at UF.
This is changing, money will not be an issue in the next coaching hire and he will be given an NIL budget to go get the players that he needs to win.

Vast majority of this list is legitimate injury. Broken bones, popped ligaments, surgeries, etc. Unfortunately, Eugene Wilson III is probably a quitter since he was a gametime decision last week and is now out. And theres a couple who I thought had shorter term injuries (which based on timing were legit) and maybe they aren't so eager to return. We'll find out in time.
Last Wednesday before the A&M game the list was even longer, and it's not like they are any more hopeful now than they were then.

Florida players are as resilient as a tissue. Genuinely the thought of quitting on your team in the middle of the season is so weak minded. Reflects upon the player as much as the coach.
VOLS fans are a lot of things. But we never gave up. And it was tough, we hit roughly 18 rock bottoms along the way.

Just hide their NIL check under their shoulder pads.

Says more about the players, IMO

I agree, like this guy.
Jamar Chase opts out of 2020 season
Right about the same time of the year as well.

So does this mean I need to get better tickets to the Cocktail Party?

How many of these are legit injuries? Did any of these players get hurt last week?

Shark-Humper, Zook, Merlins, Boom & Sun Belt Billy are the norm for Florida football.
Shark-Humper won two SEC East titles
Merlins went to 3 NY6 Bowls in four years
Zook had Florida ranked at the end of the season all three years he was there
Now, those three were way behind Spurrier and Urbs who won Nattys and had Florida ranked in the Top 5 most years, but Sun Belt Billy is in a class all by himself and has been total garbage with two about to be three losing seasons. The right coach can and will win at Florida.
